According to Fabrizio Romano, the Blues team has achieved full ownership of Xabi Alonso prior to his appointment as head coach. The parties agreed to a long-term contract with the term “chotiri roki”. It is expected that the Spanish specialist will fly to the capital of Great Britain this year, sign the documents and officially present himself as the new Kerman of the team.

For the 44-year-old Alonso, this will be the first proof of work in the English Premier League as a coach. We guess that the remaining place of his work will be Real Madrid. The Spaniard has won the 2025 season - after his remarkable achievement with Bayer Leverkusen, which leads to the Bundeslisa's historic championship without a defeat.

This period in Madrid turned out to be uninterrupted: already at the beginning of 2026, after seven months of work, Alonso lost his job due to a heavy year of work..

The arrival of such a status trainer will stabilize the difficult situation at Stamford Bridge. The current season has become a fruitful test for the team and patients. The club has praised the decision to release Liam Rosenior, who spent more than 106 days in the garden.

Under his leadership, Londoners saw a historically rotten series of results, which was accompanied by conflicts in the middle.

After Rosenior's retirement and until the end of the current season, Chelsea head coach Calum Macfarlane quickly retires. Fahivets, who previously formed the team of the Blues U-21, is now trying to assemble a team at the finish line of the championship and prepare a springboard for the beginning of a new series under the leadership of Xabi Alonso.
